My very first napo thread, I don't really know how to do this and stuff so please cut me some slack TcT My poems will all be based on the inner feelings of anime characters, and maybe some video game characters, but I will mainly be featuring Bungou Stray Dogs, Demon Slayer, and Genshin Impact. I will state what character is is though, and also note that I'll probably be posting mostly within the 10pm to 3am range because I write better at night. I also will probably post more than once a day >.< I might miss days too though.

It's just a drop of poison
To lighten up the load

It's just a smile to hide the anger
No one has to know

The darkness brewing inside
That I just can't seem to let go

This may or may not be hurting me
I truly do not know
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

It's just a joke
It's all a joke
Is life a joke?
Is life real...?
Am...
Am I real...

Do I wish to die?
I couldn't tell you in the slightest.
I certainly don't wish to live.
So I suppose I would rather be dead.

It's a joke.
I'm a joke.
I'm better off dead.
I will succeed in ending it.
One day.
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

They're dead
They shouldn't be dead
It won't leave my head
It should've been me

I am not worthy
Not worthy of anything
Not kindness
Not mercy

Someone save me
But don't actually save me
Just be there for me
Wait-- don't waste your time.
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

Am I loved?
No
Do I love others?
Yes
Yes.
YES
I love
I want to love
How I want to
That's all I want
All I want.
I want...
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

Dazai
No Longer Human
but I was never human

A god
But not a god

A human
But not a human

What am I?
An animal?
A dog?

NO.
FUCK YOU DAZAI.
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

The glass shatters
clang
No

I'm back to being eight
It was late
I dropped the plate

The bowl
The water
It was cold

The poker
Burning hot
Left scars

Don't touch me
I can't handle it

I'm a monster
I'm not good enough
I'll never be enough
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

A goddess
A fairy
A myth
No.

An angel.
I am an Angel.
Yes.
YES.

My name
Is Columbina

I AM Columbina
That is me

La la la la la
I love to sleep

Oh right
My name.
I know it,
Don't I?

Columbina.
Columbina Hyposelenia.
I shall be nothing;
the wind,
the sky.

Welcome to NaPo! You're doing great so far - I love how much emotion you're packing in such a short span of words. The glass shattering poem had a lot of good imagery and really portrayed someone in agony and doubt very well. Looking forward to reading more!
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return
